OIL COVERS RIVER, PROSECUTOR AGRY State's Attorney Thinks Some Corporation Is Guilty of Violation. STILL HUNT IS STARTED

LIGHT, NEAT A POWER COMPANY DENIES RESPONSIBILITY AND OFFERS TO AIO LADD IN INVESTIGATION.

Another Urge quantity of oil has ben dumped into the Whitewater river and Prosecuting Attorney Charles Ladd Is on a still hunt for the corporation which Is violating the law, promising dire results If evidence to warrant prosecution Is found. The oil comes from some place near the Main street bridge and as the county officials are satisf ed that It Is not 4 natural oil well bubbling up and overflowing into the river they believe that some corporation is dumping Its waste oil Into the water. . The Light, Heat' and Power company has been accused of doing this but its officials deny the accusation and even declare that they will assist the authorities in locating the rsponsibilIty In order that blame will be removed from them. The state's attorney waa promised by one of the corporation's officers that if the latter found

one of his men was dumping the oil Into the river, not only would they torn the' man over to the authorities but would "can" him in addition. Ladd is of the opinion that one of the. corporations In that vicinity has an underground and hidden tank or well from which the overflow of oil comes. He said that several years ago there was a well near the river Into which the gas company ran Its waste oil. When the well was tiled the company put telephone poles on top of the oil and then covered the poles with dirt and cinders. He believes that there is a pipe , leading to this well and whatever corporation Is violating the law runs Its waste oil into the pipe and Into the well. When the tank becomes full the pressure Is so great that some of the oil In he tank Is forced out.

Just one way your neighbors know Have used Doan's Kidney Pills; Have proved their worth in many tests. Here's Richmond testimony. David Hershey. 318 South Thirteenth street. Richmond, Ind., says: "I was troubled for some time by kidney complaint and the remedies I tried did not help me. Often I was hardly able to straighten on account-of sharp, cutting pains across the small of my back and the least exertion or any cold I contracted caused the kidney secretions to pass too frequently. Doan's Kidney Pills, procured at A. G. Luken & Co's Drug Store, cured me and at that time, I publicly recommended them. I now gladly confirm all I then 6aid, as I still firmly believe that Doan's Kidney Pills are a splendid remedy for kidney disorders." For sale by all dealers. Price SO cents.

London. Oct. 26. Luggage smashing seems to have developed into a recognized business among porters at country railway stations. This at least has been experience of many. Railway porters it seems are deliberately damaging luggage sent in advance, because they get no tips for handling it, and because they desire to deter the railway travelers from sending their luggage in this way. Inquiries which have been " made seem very ' completely to verify the complaints on the subject "My wife, my. children and I spent our holiday in Devon," one Informant states, "and in my innocence I sent our luggage In advance thinking that ,1 should save money in cab fare and in porterage, and that I should have no worry. , 'Instead I am $10 out of pocket and there is no redress. "My luggage, when it left my house was packed in good trunks and stout bags. When it arrived in Devin it, was enclosed in battered boxes and crumpled bags. "There was one new tin trunk. Jt was neatly japanned in black for Instance, and It had cost me $5. "When I retrieved it It was dented, scratched, battered and its enamel was gone. There were marks of boots on it. and it looked old and wprn. The Gladstone bags Beemed to have suf

fered at the feet of horses in a cavalry charge, , so battered and bruised were they. "Last year I took, my luggage with me, and on the whole, It traveled without much mutilation. So I asked a friend who is an official of a great railway company if he could explain why my unfortunate possessions had received such treatment when they were sent in advance. " 'It is the country porters who have done this to your luggage he said. 'They have to handle luggage sent in advance, and they get no tips for doing so."

CARRYING TOO MUCH

The mother's clothing caught fire, and she managed to extinguish it before she was badly burned, but the Are department had to be called to put out the flames on the , stairway. : - -

good blood; Given good, clean, healthy blood. Nature will do the roat with any ca of catarrh, inflammatory rheumatism, scrofula, eczema, erysipelas, bolls, pimples, scrofula, or skin disease of any kind. Good blood Invariably means vigorous appetite, good digestion and' strength. t ) Thus it stands to reason that an effective "alterative" or blood purifier, while it will not cure all 'diseases, will help in fighting any disease and will cure those mentioned above, all of which comes from bad blood. Forty years, ago Dr. A. B. Simpson, of Richmond, was known as one of the most successful physicians in three states. His success was founded almost exclusively on one prescription, the most powerful blood purifier ever known. After his death this prescription was regularly put up as Dr. A. B. Simpson's Vegetable Compound. It has been used extensively all over the country and in forty years has never failed, even in that most dreadful of all blood . diseases, syphilis in Its worst stage. And when an altera tive will 'do that, it. of course cleans and rebuilds blood affected with other trouble.., Simpson's Vegetable Compound is purely vegetable and ; as harmless as it is effective. It is sold at $1 per bottle at all drug stores.
